TED Talks Daily · Feeling stressed? The answer isn’t to “just relax” | Aditi Nerurkar · 28 Apr 2025 podcast

I have a visceral response because I'm like, don't tell me to be more resilient.

And so I really struggled with that.

And the reason is because, you know, that's

The true definition of resilience, true resilience is it honors your boundaries.

It really understands your human limitations for rest and recovery and celebrates your ability to say no.

However, over the past several years, Whitney, we've really seen a change in what that word resilience means.

And we have really, you know, it's now everywhere, toxic resilience.

It's like that definition of resilience has become dark and sinister.

It's pushing past your boundaries or productivity at all costs.

It's a mind over matter mindset.

It's when your demanding boss says like, oh, you can take on another project.

Look at you, you're resilient.

Or when a parent, you're a parent, I'm a parent, when people are like, oh, just work like you don't have kids and parent like you don't have a job.

I mean, we hear these sorts of messages all day long.

And so I hope that our conversation today, and a lot of my work focuses on reframing what resilience is, moving away from toxic resilience back to true resilience.

And that's really when I finally agreed, I said, you know what?

I'm going to put that word in there.

And I'll write all about toxic resilience.

And hopefully we can then come back to what that word truly means in the here and now.

It is.
